Good to see him put the goals away. Big test re Swansea - needs to do it there for starters.
Well fecking played Wayne. feck the haters. Great all round performance. Class is permanent - form is temporary.
That should shut a few people up.
Fair fecking play, and to give him credit: he got the deliveries he needed and duly delivered. Let's hope the floodgates now open and he can use this confidence to crack on.
If only.
Well done Wayne. Now carry this forward you beautiful (not)bald bastard.
I've criticized him when I have felt he deserved it, it would not be fair to praise him when he does well..so well done
Great game tonight. A bit more of that against PL opposition please.
Can't believe the dumb feck interviewer just asked what the celebration was about as if it was new.
Fantastic performance as striker tonight. Finally his season starts. Very happy for him
Three good first time finishes (first was very neat) and a generally solid game tonight. Needs to kick on from here now and hopefully that convinces him to stay on the shoulder of the defenders more often.
Seemed to stay right up front a lot more tonight. Hopefully he'll get a few more if Memphis, Herrera and Mata play around him.
I know
Wayne gave him the right answer.Yea definitelyI liked the "if you'd have been paying attention" reply
Yes he didn't track back so much and tried to get involved, stayed up front and waited for the balls to come in and fortunately for him they came. Three really nice finishes.
Great finishing tonight and much better all round game.
Fair play to him.
Fair play to him.
A real strikers performance tonight. I've been one of his biggest critics but tonight he played to his current strengths, long may it continue.
I knew we should have never doubted Rooney all along. One of the best players to set foot in our club.
Excuse my ignorance. Seen him do it loads but not sure what it's about?
Good performance, but I'm not so sure he'd be able to do what he did tonight against decent Premier League opposition.
We still need the likes of Lewandoski or Benzema to challenge for the titles available.
I hope we sign a big striker by Monday or this season is going to be a tough one.

Thanks the lord.
Same, delighted with tonight but will reserve most judgement on Rooney for Sunday at Swansea.
He played well but one good performance against substandard opposition doesn't end the doubts after countless poor performances. He needs to consistently do this. No point getting knee jerk and saying he's back to his best.
Don't think anyone has?
I enjoyed that too. Can't believe a professional has never noticed that before.I liked the "if you'd have been paying attention" reply
Guys, chill. I'm not a Rooney hater. That was a joke following on from the poster I quoted.
There's always one or in Rooney's case a few.
Guy scores a very nice goal but you have guys like this posting this kind of stuff.
Sorry then.
To be fair, I don't recall it before and was wondering what it was about. I thought it was a tribute to Frank Lampard's mum.
He's been doing it since 2013.
Did really well tonight.
That's what I've been wanting to see from him, actually playing on the shoulder and being willing to run in behind and occupy that striker's position. Massive improvement, and we've got enough creativity behind him to be able to put him through a few times per game.

No offence taken.Sorry then.
Rooneys goals are like busses.
They are extremley frustrating to rely on, but sometimes get you out of a sticky situation.

It seems to me him and Memphis have a nice understanding, play with each other a lot, little passes, backheels, it's like they have some combinations from training.
The difference for Rooney tonight was having Herrera on the pitch. Hope LvG plays him at the weekend. If he does Rooney will score for sure.
Let's hope this kick starts his season. He's 4 goals away from Dennis Law and another 17 goals he will overtake Sir Bobby Charlton.
